General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings

and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS

FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-

operated (cordless) power tool.

1) WORK AREA SAFETY

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust

or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not

use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and

matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,

ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is

earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the

power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged

or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor

use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault

circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric

shock.

3) PERSONAL SAFETY

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a

power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may

result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective

equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used

for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before

connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the

switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or

a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better

control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and

gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in

moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities,

ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-

related hazards.

4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The

correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool

that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power

tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons

unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage

of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If

damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by

poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting

edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these

instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be

performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result

in a hazardous situation.

5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is

suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery

pack.

b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other

battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects, that can make a

connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may

cause burns or a fire.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If

contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally

seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

6) SERVICE

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Additional Specific Safety Rules for Jig Saws

• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation

where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a

“live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator

an electric shock.

• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable

platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to

loss of control.

• Allow the motor to come to a complete stop before withdrawing the blade from the

kerf (the slot created by cutting). A moving blade may impact the workpiece causing a

broken blade, workpiece damage or loss of control and possible personal injury.

• Keep handles dry, clean, free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool.

• Keep blades sharp. Dull blades may cause the saw to swerve or stall under pressure.

• Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use. Dust and grit containing metal

particles often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard.

• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by the operating action

of this tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to provide extra

cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit daily time of use.

• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long

hair can be caught in moving parts.

WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use

face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth

defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce

your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety

equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and

other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with

soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote

absorption of harmful chemicals.

WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious and

permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection

appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI

S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product

may contribute to hearing loss.

CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it will not

cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright on the

battery pack but may be easily knocked over.

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Packs

When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to include the catalog number and voltage.

Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of chargers and battery packs.

The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using the battery pack and charger,

read the safety instructions below and then follow charging procedures outlined.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

• Do not charge or use the battery pack in explosive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Inserting or removing the battery pack from

the charger may ignite the dust or fumes.

• NEVER force the battery pack into the charger. DO NOT modify the battery pack in any

way to fit into a non-compatible charger as battery pack may rupture causing serious

personal injury. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of batteries and

chargers.

• Charge the battery packs only in designated D

EWALT chargers.

• DO NOT splash or immerse in water or other liquids.

• Do not store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may

reach or exceed 105°F (40°C) (such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).

For best life store battery packs in a cool, dry location.

NOTE: Do not store the battery packs in a tool with the trigger switch locked on. Never

tape the trigger switch in the ON position.

WARNING: Fire hazard. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the battery

pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into the charger. Do not crush, drop or damage

the battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been

dropped, run over or damaged in any way (e.g., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped

on). Damaged battery packs should be returned to the service center for recycling.

WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry the battery pack so that metal objects

can contact exposed battery terminals. For example, do not place the battery pack in

aprons, pockets, tool boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.

Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently

come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like.

The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit

transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (e.g., packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage)

UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual battery

packs, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that

could contact them and cause a short circuit.

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION (Li-Ion)

• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely damaged or is completely

worn out. The battery pack can explode in a fire. Toxic fumes and materials are created when

lithium ion battery packs are burned.

• If battery contents come into contact with the skin, immediately wash area with mild

soap and water. If battery liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 minutes

or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte is composed of a

mixture of liquid organic carbonates and lithium salts.

• Contents of opened battery cells may cause respiratory irritation. Provide fresh air. If

symptoms persist, seek medical attention.

WARNING: Burn hazard. Battery liquid may be flammable if exposed to spark or flame.

The RBRC™ Seal

The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corp oration) Seal on the nickel

cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries (or battery packs) indicate that

the costs to recycle these batteries (or battery packs) at the end of their useful life

have already been paid by D

EWALT. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel

cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries in the trash or municipal solid

waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally conscious

alternative.

RBRC™, in cooperation with D

EWALT and other battery users, has established programs in the

United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride

or lithium ion batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by returning

the spent nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium ion batteries to an authorized D

EWALT

service center or to your local retailer for recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center

for information on where to drop off the spent battery.

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important safety and operating instructions

for battery chargers.

• Before using the charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on the charger, battery

pack and product using the battery pack.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock may

result.

CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only DEWALT rechargeable battery

packs. Other types of batteries may overheat and burst resulting in personal injury and property

damage.

NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the charger can

be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such as, but not limited

to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup of metallic particles should be

kept away from the charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there

is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean.

• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in

this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to work together.

• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging D

EWALT

rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.

• Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.

• Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger. This will reduce

the risk of damage to the electric plug and cord.

• Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or

otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension

cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.

• When operating a charger outdoors, always provide a dry location and use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the

risk of electric shock.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for

safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is,

16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage

resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up

the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The

following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere

rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

• Do not place any object on top of the charger or place the charger on a soft surface

that might block the ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the

charger in a position away from any heat source. The charger is ventilated through slots in the

top and the bottom of the housing.

• Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord or plug.

• Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise

damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized service center.

• Do not disassemble the charger; take it to an authorized service center when service or

repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.

• Disconnect the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. This will

reduce the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.

• NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargers together.

• The charger is designed to operate on standard 120V household electrical power. Do

not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicular charger.

PROBLEM POWERLINE

Charge Indicators

This charger is designed to detect certain problems that can arise. Problems are indicated by the red

light flashing at a fast rate. If this occurs, re-insert the battery pack into the charger. If the problem

persists, try a different battery pack to determine if the charger is working properly. If the new pack

charges correctly, then the original pack is defective and should be returned to a service center or

other collection site for recycling. If the new battery pack elicits the same trouble indication as the

original, have the charger and the battery pack tested at an authorized service center.

HOT/COLD DELAY

This charger has a hot/cold delay feature: when the charger detects a battery that is hot, it

automatically starts a delay, suspending charging until the battery has cooled. After the battery

has cooled, the charger automatically switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures

maximum battery life. The red light flashes long, then short while in the hot/cold delay mode.

LEAVING THE BATTERY PACK IN THE CHARGER

The charger and battery pack can be left connected with the charge indicator showing Pack

Charged.

WEAK BATTERY PACKS: Weak batteries will continue to function but should not be expected

to perform as much work.

FAULTY BATTERY PACKS: This charger will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger will

indicate faulty battery pack by refusing to light or by displaying problem pack or charger.

NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.

PROBLEM POWER LINE

Some chargers have a Problem Powerline indicator. When the charger is used with some portable

power sources such as generators or sources that convert DC to AC, the charger may temporarily

suspend operation, flashing the red light with two fast blinks followed by a pause. This indicates the

power source is out of limits.

Important Charging Notes

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air

temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18° – 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an

air temperature below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important and will

prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to the touch while charging. This is a normal

condition, and does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after

use, avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal shed

or an uninsulated trailer.

3. A cold battery pack will charge at about half the rate of a warm battery pack. The battery

pack will charge at that slower rate throughout the entire charging cycle and will not return to

maximum charge rate even if the battery pack warms.

4. If the battery pack does not charge properly:

a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance;

b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you

turn out the lights;

c. Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is

approximately 65°F – 75°F (18° – 24°C);

d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service

center.

5. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which

were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the

charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no

adverse effect on the battery pack.

6. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips,

steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger

cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the

cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean.

7. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Don’t allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock may

result.

WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not submerge the battery pack in any liquid or allow any liquid to

enter the battery pack. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing

of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.

Storage Recommendations

1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away from direct sunlight and excess heat

or cold.

2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged battery pack in a cool dry place

out of the charger for optimal results.

NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of charge. The battery pack will

need to be recharged before use.

Cutting

WARNING: The jig saw should not be operated with the shoe removed or serious personal injury

may result.

POCKET CUTTING (FIG. 12)

A pocket cut is an easy method of making an inside cut. The saw can be inserted directly into a

panel or board without first drilling a lead or pilot hole. In pocket cutting, measure the surface to be

cut and mark clearly with a pencil. Next tip the saw forward until the front end of the shoe sits firmly

on the work surface and the blade clears the work through its full stroke. Switch the tool on and

allow it to attain maximum speed. Grip the saw firmly and lower the back edge of tool slowly until

the blade reaches its complete depth. Hold the shoe flat against the wood and begin cutting. Do

not remove blade from cut while it is still moving. Blade must come to a complete stop.

FLUSH CUTTING (FIG. 13)

A flush cut is necessary when finishing off cuts up to a wall or an obstacle, such as back-splash.

One of the easiest ways to accomplish the flush cut is to use a flush cutting blade (DT2074). The

flush cutting blade provides the reach necessary to cut right up to the front edge of the jig saw shoe.

Remove the anti-splinter insert and return the shoe to the 0° positive stop position before installing

and using the flush cutting blade. For the best cut quality the flush cutting blade should be used in

the 0 or 1 orbital position. The flush cutting blade should not be used to start the cut because the

flush cutting blade prevents the shoe from being supported by the work surface. Use wood cutting

practices explained below.

WOOD CUTTING

Support the workpiece adequately at all times. Use the higher speed setting for cutting wood. Do

not attempt to turn the tool on when blade is against material to be cut. This could stall the motor.

Place the front of shoe on the material to be cut and hold the jig saw shoe firmly against the wood

while cutting. Don’t force the tool; let the blade cut at its own speed. When the cut is complete,

turn the jig saw off. Let blade come to a complete stop and then lay the saw aside before loosening

the work.

METAL CUTTING

In cutting thin gauge sheet metals, it is best to clamp wood to the bottom of sheet metal; this will

insure a clean cut without the risk of vibration or tearing of metal. Always remember to use a finer

blade for ferrous metals (for those that have a high iron content); and use a coarser blade for non-

ferrous metals (those that do not have an iron content). Use a high speed setting for cutting soft

metals (aluminum, copper, brass, mild steel, galvanized. pipe, conduit sheet metal, etc.). Use lower

speed to cut plastics, tile, laminate, hard metals, and cast iron.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, depress the trigger lock button

and disconnect battery pack before making any adjustments or removing/installing

attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once a week. To

minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection when performing

this.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts

of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials used in these parts. Use a cloth

dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse

any part of the tool into a liquid.

CHARGER CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

POUR TOUTE QUESTION OU REMARQUE AU SUJET DE CET OUTIL OU DE TOUT AUTRE OUTIL

EWALT, COMPOSEZ LE NUMÉRO SANS FRAIS : 1-800-4-DEWALT (1-800-433-9258).

AVERTISSEMENT : afin de réduire le risque de blessures, lire le mode d’emploi de l’outil.

Avertissements de sécurité généraux pour les outils

électriques

AVERTISSEMENT! Lire tous les avertissements de sécurité et toutes les directives.

Le non-respect des avertissements et des directives pourrait se solder par un choc

électrique, un incendie et/ou une blessure grave.

CONSERVER TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS ET TOUTES LES

DIRECTIVES POUR UN USAGE ULTÉRIEUR

Le terme « outil électrique » cité dans les avertissements se rapporte à votre outil électrique à

alimentation sur secteur (avec fil) ou par piles (sans fil).

1) SÉCURITÉ DU LIEU DE TRAVAIL

a) Tenir l’aire de travail propre et bien éclairée. Les lieux encombrés ou sombres sont

propices aux accidents.

b) Ne pas faire fonctionner d’outils électriques dans un milieu déflagrant, tel qu’en

présence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inflammables. Les outils électriques

produisent des étincelles qui pourraient enflammer la poussière ou les vapeurs.

c) Éloigner les enfants et les personnes à proximité pendant l’utilisation d’un outil

électrique. Une distraction pourrait en faire perdre la maîtrise à l’utilisateur.

2) SÉCURITÉ EN MATIÈRE D’ÉLECTRICITÉ

a) Les fiches des outils électriques doivent correspondre à la prise. Ne jamais modifier

la fiche d’aucune façon. Ne jamais utiliser de fiche d’adaptation avec un outil

électrique mis à la terre. Le risque de choc électrique sera réduit par l’utilisation de fiches

non modifiées correspondant à la prise.

b) Éviter tout contact physique avec des surfaces mises à la terre comme des tuyaux,

des radiateurs, des cuisinières et des réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique est

plus élevé si votre corps est mis à la terre.

c) Ne pas exposer les outils électriques à la pluie ou à l’humidité. La pénétration de l’eau

dans un outil électrique augmente le risque de choc électrique.

d) Ne pas utiliser le cordon de façon abusive. Ne jamais utiliser le cordon pour

transporter, tirer ou débrancher un outil électrique. Tenir le cordon éloigné de

la chaleur, de l’huile, des bords tranchants et des pièces mobiles. Les cordons

endommagés ou enchevêtrés augmentent les risques de choc électrique.

e) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil électrique à l’extérieur, se servir d’une rallonge

convenant à cette application. L’utilisation d’une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur réduira

les risques de choc électrique.

f) S’il est impossible d’éviter l’utilisation d’un outil électrique dans un endroit

humide, brancher l’outil dans une prise ou sur un circuit d’alimentation dotés d’un

disjoncteur de fuite à la terre (GFCI). L’utilisation de ce type de disjoncteur réduit les

risques de choc électrique.

3) SÉCURITÉ PERSONNELLE

a) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail effectué et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’un outil

électrique est utilisé. Ne pas utiliser d’outil électrique en cas de fatigue ou sous

l’influence de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un simple moment d’inattention

en utilisant un outil électrique peut entraîner des blessures corporelles graves.

b) Utiliser des équipements de protection individuelle. Toujours porter une protection

oculaire. L’utilisation d’équipements de protection comme un masque antipoussière, des

chaussures antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des protecteurs auditifs lorsque la

situation le requiert réduira les risques de blessures corporelles.

c) Empêcher les démarrages intempestifs. S’assurer que l’interrupteur se trouve à la

position d’arrêt avant de relier l’outil à une source d’alimentation et/ou d’insérer un

bloc-piles, de ramasser ou de transporter l’outil. Transporter un outil électrique alors

que le doigt repose sur l’interrupteur ou brancher un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est

à la position de marche risque de provoquer un accident.

d) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé avant de démarrer l’outil. Une clé ou une clé de

réglage attachée à une partie pivotante de l’outil électrique peut provoquer des blessures

corporelles.

e) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son équilibre en tout temps. Cela permet de

mieux maîtriser l’outil électrique dans les situations imprévues.

f) S’habiller de manière appropriée. Ne pas porter de vêtements amples ni de bijoux.

Garder les cheveux, les vêtements et les gants à l’écart des pièces mobiles. Les

vêtements amples, les bijoux ou les cheveux longs risquent de rester coincés dans les

pièces mobiles.

g) Si des composants sont fournis pour le raccordement de dispositifs de dépoussiérage

et de ramassage, s’assurer que ceux-ci sont bien raccordés et utilisés. L’utilisation

d’un dispositif de dépoussiérage peut réduire les dangers engendrés par les poussières.

4) UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN D’UN OUTIL ÉLECTRIQUE

a) Ne pas forcer un outil électrique. Utiliser l’outil électrique approprié à l’application.

L’outil électrique approprié effectuera un meilleur travail, de façon plus sûre et à la vitesse

pour laquelle il a été conçu.

b) Ne pas utiliser un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux. Tout outil

électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux est dangereux et doit être réparé.

c) Débrancher la fiche de la source d’alimentation et/ou du bloc-piles de l’outil

électrique avant de faire tout réglage ou changement d’accessoire ou avant de

ranger l’outil. Ces mesures préventives réduisent les risques de démarrage accidentel de

l’outil électrique.

d) Ranger les outils électriques hors de la portée des enfants et ne permettre à

aucune personne n’étant pas familière avec un outil électrique ou son mode

d’emploi d’utiliser cet outil. Les outils électriques deviennent dangereux entre les mains

d’utilisateurs inexpérimentés.

e) Entretien des outils électriques. Vérifier si les pièces mobiles sont mal alignées ou

coincées, si des pièces sont brisées ou présentent toute autre condition susceptible

de nuire au bon fonctionnement de l’outil électrique. En cas de dommage, faire

réparer l’outil électrique avant toute nouvelle utilisation. Beaucoup d’accidents sont

causés par des outils électriques mal entretenus.

f) S’assurer que les outils de coupe sont aiguisés et propres. Les outils de coupe bien

entretenus et affûtés sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et sont plus faciles à maîtriser.

g) Utiliser l’outil électrique, les accessoires, les forets, etc. conformément aux

présentes directives en tenant compte des conditions de travail et du travail à

effectuer. L’utilisation d’un outil électrique pour toute opération autre que celle pour

laquelle il a été conçu est dangereuse.

5) UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN DU BLOC-PILES

a) Ne recharger l’outil qu’au moyen du chargeur précisé par le fabricant. L’utilisation

d’un chargeur qui convient à un type de bloc-piles risque de provoquer un incendie s’il est

utilisé avec un autre type de b loc-piles.

b) Utiliser les outils électriques uniquement avec les blocs-piles conçus à cet effet.

L’utilisation de tout autre bloc-piles risque de causer des blessures ou un incendie.

c) Lorsque le bloc-piles n’est pas utilisé, le tenir éloigné des objets métalliques,

notamment des trombones, de la monnaie, des clés, des clous, des vis ou autres

petits objets métalliques qui peuvent établir une connexion entre les deux bornes.

Le court-circuit des bornes du bloc-piles risque de provoquer des brûlures ou un incendie.

d) En cas d’utilisation abusive, le liquide peut gicler hors du bloc-piles; éviter tout

contact avec ce liquide. Si un contact accidentel se produit, laver à grande eau. Si

le liquide entre en contact avec les yeux, obtenir également des soins médicaux. Le

liquide qui gicle hors du bloc-piles peut provoquer des irritations ou des brûlures.

6) RÉPARATION

a) Faire réparer l’outil électrique par un réparateur professionnel en n’utilisant

que des pièces de rechange identiques. Cela permettra de maintenir une utilisation

sécuritaire de l’outil électrique.

Régles de sécurité additionnelles particuliéres concernant

les scies sauteuses

• Tenir l’outil par les surfaces isolées prévues à cet effet pendant toute utilisation où

l’organe de coupe pourrait entrer en contact avec des fils électriques cachés. Tout

contact de l’organe de coupe avec un fil sous tension mettra les parties métalliques exposées

de l’outil sous tension et électrocutera l’utilisateur.

• Utilisez des serres de fixation ou un autre dispositif de fixation permettant de soutenir

et de retenir la pièce sur une plate-forme stable. Tenir la pièce avec la main ou contre son

corps n’est pas suffisamment stable et risque de provoquer une perte de maîtrise de l’outil.

• Attendre que le moteur s’arrête complètement avant de retirer la lame de l’entaille

(la fente créée par la coupe). Une lame qui bouge peut rebondir contre la pièce et se briser

ou endommager la pièce ou encore, faire perdre la maîtrise de l’outil et causer des risques de

blessure.

• Garder les poignées propres, sèches et exemptes de toute trace d’huile et de graisse

afin d’éviter de perdre la maîtrise de l’outil.

• Maintenir les lames bien aiguisées, car les lames usées peuvent faire dévier la scie ou faire

caler le moteur lorsqu’on exerce trop de pression sur l’outil.

• Bien nettoyer l’outil périodiquement, surtout après l’avoir utilisé longuement, car

la poussière et les particules métalliques tendent à s’accumuler sur les surfaces internes et

peuvent entraîner des risques de choc électrique.

• Ne pas utiliser cet outil pendant des périodes prolongées. Les vibrations causées par

l’action de fonctionnement de l’outil peuvent blesser en permanence les doigts, les mains et les

bras. Porter des gants pour amortir les vibrations, faire des pauses fréquentes et limiter le temps

d’utilisation quotidien de l’outil.

• Prendre des précautions à proximité des évents, car ils cachent des pièces mobiles.

Vêtements amples, bijoux ou cheveux longs risquent de rester coincés dans ces pièces mobiles.

AVERTISSEMENT: porter SYSTEMATIQUEMENT des lunettes de protection. Les lunettes

courantes NE sont PAS des lunettes de protection. Utiliser aussi un masque antipoussières si

la découpe doit en produire beaucoup. PORTER SYSTÉMATIQUEMENT UN ÉQUIPEMENT DE

SÉCURITÉ HOMOLOGUÉ:

• Protection oculaire ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3);

• Protection auditive ANSI S12.6 (S3.19);

• Protection des voies respiratoires NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA.

AVERTISSEMENT : les scies, meules, ponceuses, perceuses ou autres outils de construction

peuvent produire des poussières contenant des produits chimiques reconnus par l’État californien

pour causer cancers, malformations congénitales ou être nocifs au système reproducteur. Parmi

ces produits chimiques, on retrouve:

• Le plomb dans les peintures à base de plomb;

• La silice cristallisée dans les briques et le ciment, ou autres produits de maçonnerie; et

• L’arsenic et le chrome dans le bois ayant subi un traitement chimique.

Le risque associé à de telles expositions varie selon la fréquence à laquelle on effectue ces travaux.

Pour réduire toute exposition à ces produits: travailler dans un endroit bien aéré, en utilisant du

matériel de sécurité homologué, tel un masque antipoussières spécialement conçu pour filtrer les

particules microscopiques.

• Limiter toute exposition prolongée avec les poussières provenant du ponçage, sciage,

meulage, perçage ou toute autre activité de construction. Porter des vêtements de

protection et nettoyer à l’eau savonneuse les parties du corps exposées. Le fait de

laisser la poussière pénétrer dans la bouche, les yeux ou la peau peut favoriser l’absorption de

produits chimiques dangereux.

AVERTISSEMENT : cet outil peut produire et/ou répandre de la poussière susceptible de

causer des dommages sérieux et permanents au système respiratoire. Utiliser systématiquement

un appareil de protection des voies respiratoires homologué par le NIOSH ou l’OSHA. Diriger les

particules dans le sens opposé au visage et au corps.

may or may not need this warning, depends on tool:

AVERTISSEMENT : pendant l’utilisation, porter systématiquement une protection

auditive individuelle adéquate homologuée ANSI S12.6 (S3.19). Sous certaines conditions

et suivant la durée d’utilisation, le bruit émanant de ce produit pourrait contribuer à une perte de

l’acuité auditive.

ATTENTION: après utilisation, ranger l’outil sur son côté, sur une surface stable, là où

il ne pourra ni faire trébucher ni faire chuter quelqu’un. Certains outils équipés d’un large

bloc-piles peuvent tenir à la verticale sur celui-ci, mais manquent alors de stabilité.
